Great to meet you!

I’m a relationship and trauma psychotherapist who is passionate about helping both individuals and families heal from emotional, physical, and psychological obstacles.

My approach to therapy

I’ve been described as a warm client centered therapist with a caring, genuine approach. I aim to meet the unique need of my clients by using various tools. I like to remind myself and my clients of both our common humanity and diversity, therefore I invite non-judgment into our space. I treat clients who have various goals, however, I am especially impactful with individuals, families, and couples, who seek trauma, attachment and relationship repair.

What you can expect from me

I aim to create a diverse therapeutic climate: supportive, insightful, challenging, humorous, strengthening and allowing. Most often all of the above can be a source of insight.
